Chapter 238: Suffering Will Always Exist
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
But now, Denise had suggested it herself. Yue Xin had used Yi Chengxuan as bait to give Denise a chance to empathize. This way, she would think that helping Yue Xin was helping herself, and she would be even more committed.
Denise was weak. She could only rely on herself. If she showed a little of her abilities, it wouldn’t take much for Denise to climb up her rope. What seemed like a short conversation was actually Yue Xin’s plan a few days ago. She first changed Denise’s opinion of her step by step, then made her jump into a trap. After doing all this, Yue Xin’s expression didn’t change at all. In fact, she looked at Denise with attachment.
No.12 followed behind Denise and Yue Xin. When he heard Yue Xin mention the past, he was a little touched. Just as Yue Qing had said, after people encountered misfortune, they couldn’t help but think that if they had chosen something else back then, they wouldn’t have to suffer like the way they did. But in fact, suffering would always exist. It existed in various forms in life. You felt that you had a better choice, but in fact, you had only chosen a different form of suffering.
Those weak people were unwilling to face hardship and always resorted to fantasies. They imagined that they could change a choice in the past so that they could escape the current predicament. However, if a person did not change themselves first, they would forever have the same ending. As for his ending, was it predestined? No. 12’s gaze landed on Yue Xin without a trace of confusion.
That night, Yue Xin lay in bed. It was rare for her to have a good sleep, but today, she realized that her bed was so hard! How was this a bed? It was no different from sleeping on the marble floor. How strange. Why hadn’t she realized that this bed was so unbearable before? How had she slept before? It was only then that Yue Xin realized that she had been too tense before. Other than Maya’s matter, there was no room in her mind for anything else. Recently, in Building No. 8, she had learned to analyze others and herself. She knew better what she wanted. For example, now, she wanted a comfortable and soft mattress.
Yue Xin habitually placed her fingers on her earphones. Just as she was about to call No. 12 and ask him to help her get a mattress to change into, she thought about it and decided to forget it. Two days ago, she heard a prisoner from Building No. 8 say to E.P. that he had spent a lot of money to get a mattress from outside. It had been delivered in the past few days. This prisoner used to be a rich young master. Although he was down and out now and was even in prison, once he had a small sum of money in his hands, he couldn’t help but create a more comfortable environment for himself. Yes, she would meet this person at 4 p.m. tomorrow. She would go to Gambling Table 5. At that time, she would just propose a bet to him and win that mattress. Once a
person had a goal, they would become extremely powerful. This sentence was also applicable to Yue Xin.
The next day, Yue Xin went on a killing spree in Building No. No. No. No. 8, so much so that the subordinates guarding the place could only run to E.P.
“Boss, your disciple is crazy!”
E.P. said, “Crazy what? Super crazy or a little crazy?” E.P. didn’t care. He fiddled with the tobacco he had just gotten.
His subordinate: “Super crazy!”
E.P. demanded, “Damn it! I’m asking you what’s wrong with her!”
His subordinate: “She won all the chips of all the guests who came today!”
E.P. retorted, “So what if she won everything? Why are you shouting!… Wait a minute, she won everything?”
The subordinate repeated, “All the chips of the guests who came to the casino today have been won!”
“F*ck! All of it?” E.P. finally put down his tobacco and got up to look around for his fur coat.
“Boss, the air conditioner outside is still on. It’s not cold!” The subordinate’s original intention was to remind E.P. not to look for his fur coat if he couldn’t find it. It would waste too much time.
E.P. glared at him. “You don’t know shit! Know why I’m the boss, don’t you?” The subordinate said, “Because you are good?”
“Bullsh*t! Because I can wear fur and you can only wear work clothes, understand? Don’t f*cking talk nonsense. Hurry up and help me find it. Where did I put it today…”
While E.P. was looking for a jacket, Yue Xin successfully won another man’s underpants.
What happened was like this. That man lost all his chips but was still unwilling to accept it. He insisted on playing another game of luck with Yue Xin.
Therefore, under the witness of many people, the dealer randomly drew a card and let Yue Xin and the man guess the number and color of the cards. Whoever guessed correctly first would win.
Since both of them had their backs to the croupier, they could not see how the cards were shuffled, nor did they know where the croupier was drawing cards. It looked like they could only guess.
The dealer pulled out a card. The prisoners watching the show had different expressions, but they could not tell anything from their expressions..
